It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of a loving and kind mother, grand-mother, special aunt and sister, Myrtle Donahue on April 7, 2022 at the Moncton City Hospital. Born in Belledune, NB, she was the daughter of the late Alphonse and Marguerite Lagace. At the age of sixteen, she joined her older sisters in Moncton and was employed at the E. Eaton. Co. She met and married the love of her life, Edward Donahue, and together, they owned and operated Ed's Corner Store & Postal Service at the corner of Mountain Rd. and Archibald St. for many years. Myrtle was an excellent cook and anyone who dropped by, never left hungry. Her roast beef dinners were like none other. She was a member of the St. Bernard's Parish, loved old-time music and drives in the country. She is survived and will be dearly missed by her two sons, Jerome (Melanie) and step-son Chris of Edmonton, AB; Peter (Phyllis) and their two daughters, Bliss and Beatrice of Waterloo, ON, two sisters, Doris Malenfant (late Edgar) and Adeline Fisher (late Clair) with whom she shared a special bond, having resided together for over 10 years.
